TV and Film

With the boys, I watch only 30-45 mins, but not every day. Depends if it's a day they'll be able to handle the input - sensory overload is a real issue here, and there are times when our schedule has been too packed. I also typically give them a day to recuperate after they've had a bunch of video games, TV, and busyness with their dad. (He generally doesn't seem to understand their specific needs, no matter how much documentation is provided.)

Most evenings, there'll be 60-90 mins of TV time for me once all kids are in bed. One night a week, they're away and then I admit that I start watching at supper time and it's probably a bit much; but it does allow me to catch up or watch entire movies... I'll have an extra night to do that this week, but I'm not sure if I'll take advantage of it or just play music instead. Anyway, I always make sure I have 30-60 minutes of reading at the end of the day, and that helps me wind down from TV and everything else!
